Opposite Trends in Glass Transition and Vogel Temperatures in Long‐Chain Branched Poly(l‐Lactic Acid)

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The glass transition temperature (Tg), as determined by conventional DSC, increases from 326 K to 329 K while the Vogel temperature (Tv) decreases from 271 K to 255 K as the number of branch points per molecule increases from 0 to 3.3. ABSTRACT Poly(l‐lactic acid) (PLLA) is widely used as both a commodity thermoplastic and for engineering applications,
